Are these hashtags backed by real Instagram volume data?

No. This V1 is a curated and rule-based generator that runs entirely in your browser. It produces relevant, on-topic suggestions but it does not call live Instagram or TikTok hashtag-volume APIs. Treat the suggested mix as a strong starting point, not a precise volume forecast.

How many hashtags should I use per post?

Most platforms reward focus over volume. We recommend roughly 3 broad, 7 to 8 niche, and 3 local tags, around 10 to 13 total. Adding 30 generic tags rarely outperforms a tight, on-topic set.

Is the hashtag generator really free?

Yes. No sign-up, no email gate, no paywall. It runs in your browser and you can copy the result straight into your post.

Q: How does the free hashtag generator work?

You enter a topic or post idea, pick your industry, and optionally add your city. The tool combines a curated industry hashtag bank with on-topic expansions of your input and local tags, then groups the suggestions by reach (broad, niche, local) and recommends a sensible mix per post.

Tell us your topic, industry, and city. We will suggest a curated set of hashtags grouped by reach (broad, niche, local) with a suggested mix you can copy straight into a post.

How this works

This is a curated and rule-based generator, not live Instagram or TikTok volume data. It pairs a hand-built industry hashtag bank with on-topic expansions of your input and local tags when a city is provided, then groups everything by reach so you know which tags are for visibility and which are for engagement. For real-time volume numbers, your platform's native search is the source of truth.
